Default Adjustable endlinks for the ITR sway bar???

I've seen them on Miatas. I'm wondering if they are available for the ITR rear sway bar. Would they be effective?

There would definately be plus to using them, and correctly setting/equalizing the load on the bars after the car has been cornerweighted.

That being said, I haven't seen any but have purchased a spare set of front links for just this purpose.
The rears might be a little tougher to work with, and all four will need to be re-worked just to be usable in an adjustable manner.

If you just wanted to equalize the loads - couldn't just one adjustable endling on each bar accomplish this?

Possibly, however one side (link) might need to be lowered while the other side may need to be raised. JMHO

Thanks, though at this point the adjustable links are not presently high on my need-to-do list.

That being said ... once the car is up and running with the buddy clubs and fresh rear springs installed,
I'll be looking into optimizing the suspension.
